Which SGI members are merely evil persons and which are unspeakably evil persons?

SGI members ARE unspeakably evil persons according to the Nirvana Sutra because they claim that they have no need to conceive a desire for enlightenment because they are already Buddhas. This is a slander of the correct teaching. Nichiren says of such persons that "they will dream at night of demons, and their hearts will be filled with terror. The demons will say to them, 'How foolish you are, my friend! If you do not set your mind on enlightenment now, your life span will be cut short!'" So terrified, they immediately set their minds on enlightenment. Nichiren goes on, "In other words, although one might slander the correct teaching, if one is not an unspeakably evil person, one will be warned at once in a dream and will have a change of heart." -- Opening of the Eyes
